  • 5. Social Value | Defining, Delivering and Measuring Impact

    50:33||Season 3, Ep. 5
    Social value refers to the positive social, environmental, and economic impacts of a project beyond financial gains. However, there is currently no standardised way to define or measure social value in the built environment in Australia; this lack of clarity makes it hard to assess a project’s impact, maximise positive outcomes and ensure accountability.In this episode, HIP V. HYPE's Better Cities & Regions Associate Alexandra Faure joins Samantha Peart, Global Head of Sustainability, Hassell; Ingrid Langtry, Place & Experience Expert and Gavin Ashley, Head of Better Cities & Regions and a Director of Sustainability, HIP V. HYPE. As our society faces growing environmental and social challenges, a clearer, systematic approach is required to meaningfully incorporate social value into projects of all scales.Join us for a live recording to explore practical ways to define, deliver and measure meaningful social value for architects, planners, developers, builders, economists or citizens alike.--We respectfully acknowledge that every project enabled or assisted by HIP V.

  • 4. The Role of Research | Creating Meaningful Feedback Loops

    54:15||Season 3, Ep. 4
    Too often neglected in the project cycle, post-occupancy research seeks to understand gaps between design intent and real-world performance. Energy use, indoor environmental quality (IEQ), user satisfaction, culture & community, unintended consequences (good & bad)…In this episode, HIP V. HYPE's Founder Liam Wallis joins Dr Pippa Soccio, Senior Research Scientist – Building Monitoring, CSIRO; Dr Christopher Jensen, Lecturer in Architecture, Building and Planning, Melbourne School of Design and Merrick Morley, PhD Candidate, Melbourne School of Design.

  • 3. The Climate is Changing | Is Our Planning System Keeping Up?

    01:03:50||Season 3, Ep. 3
    Climate resilience is the ability of social, economic, human engineered and natural systems to withstand and recover from hazardous climatic events while maintaining their core structures and functions. Climate change related hazardous events and associated risks are rapidly evolving. Victoria’s planning scheme is not keeping pace. A lack of coordination, continuity and investment in the best available data, inadequate integration of climate risk considerations and frankly the scheme’s inflexibility is hindering effective planning. In this episode, HIP V. HYPE's Head of Better Cities & Regions and Director of Sustainability Gavin Ashley joins Dr Judy Bush, Senior Lecturer in Urban Planning, University of Melbourne; Jane Keddie, Director, Hansen Partnership; Prof Alan March, Professor in Urban Planning, University of Melbourne and Chloe Johnston, Manager - Infrastructure Advisory, Aurecon. Join us for a live recording seeking to understand how our planning scheme can be better designed to adapt to the dynamic challenges of climate change to create a more resilient and prosperous future for all. --We respectfully acknowledge that every project enabled or assisted by HIP V.

  • 2. More & Better Homes | Community Housing

    55:03||Season 3, Ep. 2
    Australia needs more housing, period. This is especially important in the community housing sector, and we applaud the efforts of governments to increase funding and set targets to seek to address the dire shortage. Community housing is secure, affordable, long term rental housing managed by not-for-profit organisations for people on low incomes or with special needs. Providers are registered and regulated by the state government.In seeking to rapidly increase supply, how do we ensure that the homes we build are optimised for high performance, reduced operational energy costs, improved health and comfort outcomes and increase resilience against impacts of climate change for the next 50-100 years…?In this episode, Founder of HIP V. HYPE Liam Wallis joins Lucy Simms, Chief Commercial Officer, Women's Property Initiatives; Kathy Johnson, Managing Director at Yarraport and David Mahony, Head of Better Buildings and a Director of Sustainability at HIP V. HYPE to explore immediate action to optimise alignment between affordability and sustainability for community housing. What are the barriers, what are the opportunities and where are our blind spots…?--We respectfully acknowledge that every project enabled or assisted by HIP V.

  • 9. Efficiency First | Designing for Passive House

    22:47||Season 2, Ep. 9
    Originating in Germany in 1992, the Passive House methodology provides for energy efficient homes that support healthy indoor air quality and year-round thermal and acoustic comfort. Certified Passive Houses are underpinned by the five Passive House foundational principles of appropriate insulation, no uncontrolled air leakage, mechanical heat recovery ventilation, windows that insulate and seal and no thermal bridges. In this episode, Laura Phillips, Head of Urban Advocacy at HIP V. HYPE sits down with Clare Parry, Better Buildings Lead at HIP V.
